Whether the sear bar is relieved or unrelieved has no effect on the Schiwy safety. There is a vertical hole in the front of the sear bar that the front pin of the Schiwy safety drops into when the side plate is removed. I do not have a Luger with a sear safety so I do not know if the hole is drilled all the way through...I suspect it probably is. The side plate holds the Schiwy safety up so that the pin will not drop into the sear bar when the action is assembled. The side plate is modified with a slot on top to allow the pin to move back and forth when the action is cycled.
